Zhou Yang thought about it for a while, looked at the pouring rain outside the window, and still shook his head, "No, this rain is falling thoroughly, we have to go around the two-mile path tomorrow, and one person can't hold a bucket." ”

"How about two trips back and forth?"

"Let's look at it tomorrow, I'm afraid that the back and forth will be too conspicuous, and there will be no place to hide the bucket, and it will be bad if someone finds it again."

Zhou Chen could only agree. Zhou Yang is very thoughtful, and it's always good to be careful.

Early the next morning, without Zhou Yang mentioning it, Mrs. Zhou urged them to go out quickly. Zhou Jun really wanted to follow, but Zhou Chen didn't say anything, so he took him with him. Walking to the east of Tuntou, Zhou Chen muttered a few words in Zhou Jun's ear, and Zhou Jun left them and turned around and walked north.

The three brothers and sisters saw him turn a corner and go to Beidabaozi, and then slowly walked to the east, and walked for a while, and after making sure that Zhou Jun had really left, they turned around and walked through the field path in the direction of the southern Hetao.

"Erle came out to fight sparrows last time, and he hit two of them, and he and Zhao Dazhuang burned themselves in the windbreak. I told him that Zhao Dazhuang was going to go today, and asked him to go there and wait. Without his brother asking, Zhou Chen took the initiative to say, "Fight rabbits with us, he can't eat anything when he's tired enough, he just wants to be fresh, and he really lets him run all over the mountain, so he doesn't want to." ”

Zhou Yang smiled and didn't speak, it's no secret that Zhou Jun is lazy and cheating, no one usually cares about him, but when it's time to be more serious, he has too many pigtails like this, grab a handful.

Today is still the same as last time, the three brothers and sisters first grabbed a bucket of fish, and then had a full meal of grilled fish, and then took a bucket of big fish and two rabbits to the village.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Gao Jianjun smiled when he saw the three brothers and sisters waiting on the side of the road, "I knew you would be able to come today!" He also gave Zhou Wanwan a few white rabbit toffee and a nectarine wrapped in foam paper, "I have a colleague who brought it back from a long trip to the south, and there are not a few good ones left in us, so I left one for you." ”

Zhou Wanwan thanked her with a smile, but she didn't pick it up, this nectarine is nothing more common for her. But it is very precious to Gao Jianjun, so it is better not to accept gifts of unequal value between the two sides, otherwise everyone will have a plan in their hearts, and it is better not to have anything to do with it. Just do business with both goods and money.

Zhou Chen and Zhou Yang also refused to accept this peach, if it was a few pieces of toffee, they would still know the value and could afford it, but they had never seen this nectarine, and it was transported from the far south. It's not something you can buy with money, and although they really want to give their sister a taste, they can't accept it.

Gao Jianjun saw a few children like this, stuffed the nectarines into Zhou Wanwan's arms, and deliberately reprimanded them in an impatient tone, "At a young age, why are they all so inked!" Hurry up and weigh the fish! I'll have to travel for hours to get back! Yesterday, I asked my colleague to take the word back, and today there will be fish, and everyone is waiting for me at the door of the company! ”

Zhou Chen and Zhou Yang couldn't help it. had to let Zhou Wanwan accept this nectarine, and then hurriedly weigh the fish for Gao Jianjun. Today, the brothers caught a lot of fish, more than 50 catties, and sold them for 26 yuan and 8 cents. The rabbits are also fat, but Zhou Yang decided not to sell the two rabbits today, one for Gao Jianjun as a reward for his sister's snacks, and one for his brother and sister to sacrifice a few teeth. The younger siblings had been planning to roast rabbit meat for so long, so they had to let them eat it.

Zhou Chen has no opinion, but Zhou Wanwan has an opinion and it is not good to say it in front of outsiders. In the end, I can only do what Zhou Yang said. But Gao Jianjun refused to ask for their rabbits, saying that he would give money for everything, and finally pulled for a long time, Gao Jianjun threw down the three big unity and left. Leaving Zhou Yang's brother to worry about how to repay him.

But all this distress was filled with joy, and they now had a deposit of sixty-two dollars and three cents. More than 60 yuan, in their entire Erdaokan Brigade, it is estimated that no one except the team secretary's family has so much money now!

Raising a pig will sell for sixty or seventy yuan, and it has to be rated as a good grade at the acquisition station, in case the pig is too thin or has other problems. It is estimated that it will not sell for sixty yuan.

Zhou Chen held three big unity cards and shook them in front of Zhou Wanwan, "These are enough for three years of school!" Wait for the eldest brother and second brother to continue selling fish and send them to the commune primary school to go to school! "Money is people's courage, when will it be, people with money in their hands have confidence to speak, Zhou Chen said these words very heroically and cheerfully.

Zhou Wanwan giggled, "Send the second brother to school too!" ”

Zhou Chen pinched his sister's little nose and didn't speak. There are a lot of things he can't tell his sister, and he wants to go to school, but if he can't, he can still live a good life.

The three brothers and sisters went to the supply and marketing cooperatives and food stations again, but they came out without buying anything. Today, there are still no fritters to sell at the food station, and the supply and marketing cooperatives have bought a little biscuits, but they have to collect food stamps, and they don't sell money without food stamps. Zhou Wanwan refused to ask for other things, and the Zhou Yang brothers had nothing to buy, so the three brothers and sisters came back empty-handed.

In fact, it's not that they don't have what they need, they need too many things, but they are reluctant to break a big unity to spend. These hard banknotes are the paving blocks under their feet, with them, they walk hard, and no one is willing to open one and spend it.

Of course, if my sister needs anything, the Zhou Yang brothers will not hesitate to buy it for her. But the biscuits were not sold to them without food stamps, and they wanted to buy a small iron spoon for their sister but did not have them, so they could only return empty-handed.

The three brothers and sisters who returned empty-handed were happily talking and laughing, and they had a large sum of money in their pockets, (this was really a huge amount of money for rural children at that time, and even many adults had never had so much money once in their lives.) There's a fat bunny waiting for them to feast on the cart, and what could be more gratifying than counting the money when they're full!

Along the way, Zhou Chen beat more than a dozen sparrows and kept them to deal with Mrs. Zhou.

Zhou Wanwan deliberately wanted to do this, she wanted to muddy the waters of the Zhou family with these sparrows, so that these people would all calculate their little Jiujiu, and don't come to provoke their brothers and sisters.

Zhou Yang's three brothers and sisters had a full meal of rabbit meat, and really according to Zhou Chen and Zhou Wanwan's plan, they wrapped the meat in a big leaf and dug a pit and buried it, and then burned a fire on it, the cooked meat was tender and fragrant, with water celery, shallots, and small garlic, not to mention how delicious. After eating, they cleaned up carefully, and rested until it was dark.

As soon as the more than ten sparrows were taken out, the eyes of everyone in the Zhou family changed. Zhou Wanwan looked at them and smiled coldly at the corner of her mouth. She is the viper that seduced Eve, but if Eve is not greedy in her heart, how can she be tempted?

As expected by Zhou Wanwan, this night, the atmosphere of the Zhou family was very weird. Everyone's eyes have special content. The three brothers and sisters had nothing to do with themselves, and went to sleep happily. The Zhou family can fight as much as they want, as long as it doesn't affect them, it doesn't matter who wins or loses.

The next day, Zhou Wanwan regretted it, these sparrows did intensify the internal contradictions of the Zhou family. But he also lit the big explosive bag of Mrs. Zhou. Now Mrs. Zhou is looking at who is a white-eyed wolf and black-hearted, and who she catches and scolds whom, it is simply an indiscriminate attack. Therefore, the three brothers and sisters of Zhou Yang, who were not interested in those sparrows at all, also had to clamp their tails and behave, for fear of hindering Mrs. Zhou's eyes, she was still suspecting that Zhou Yang had hidden them, and scolded them for being more fierce and justified than others......

No one in the Zhou family mentioned the sparrow again, and Zhou Wanwan didn't see Zhou Hongying eating her roasted sparrows with a sense of superiority when others were drinking thin mush as usual. The dozen or so sparrows disappeared silently, and everyone in the Zhou family was even more silent at the dinner table. Of course, Mrs. Zhou's bad temper was also exacerbated by this silence. Under the vicious circle, for a few days, the Zhou family fell into a dead silence except for the swearing of Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou's bad temper continued until Zhao Simao came to Zhou's house again. The two talked in the house for a long time, and finally Zhao Simao walked out of Zhou's house with a bulging little cloth in her hand and smiled, and Mrs. Zhou also showed her first smile in these days.

Zhou Wanwan guessed that Zhou Ping's change of relatives should be decided. Two days ago, she overheard Zhou Juan talking to Mrs. Zhou and Wang Fengying: "...... As long as people get married, how can she really die...... If she dares to die, we will save trouble! Save yourself from coming back every once in a while to cry and cry. If she is really dead, Xu Chun of the Makeng will have to repay her brother's debt for the rest of her life, she will not want to step out of our Zhou family again, and she will have to give my brother a lifetime of being a cow and a horse to repay our life, ......what are we afraid of?"

Zhou Wanwan sneered. Zhou Juan is the most ruthless one in Zhou Jiaxin. Mrs. Zhou and Wang Fengying dared to calculate Zhou Ping so boldly, and she played a key role behind it. As a girl who has not yet married, Zhou Juan's mind is really not ordinary deep and vicious, which makes Zhou Wanwan begin to re-examine this cousin who seemed to have done nothing to their brothers and sisters in her previous life. It also began to embankment her even more.

Time into June, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, the summer busyness has also entered the white-hot stage, the production team every day The bell is ringing more and more urgently, and the old captain roared and held several mobilization meetings. Except for the elderly and young children with limited mobility, there is not a single idler in sight. Those who can go to the ground are gone, keep a seedling in summer, and a mouthful of food in autumn, and no one who is afraid of hunger will not relax at this time.

Zhou Wanwan opened his eyes every day, Zhou Yang had already gone to work in the morning, and the two brothers could only go home when it was completely dark. She added some cooling medicine to the spiritual spring water for them to drink, and increased the dose of energy supplements, but the two brothers still lost weight, although they knew that there was no problem with their bodies, Zhou Wanwan still couldn't help but feel distressed......

On this day, Zhou Wanwan sat at the gate and waited for the two brothers to come home, their brothers and sisters now only spend a little bit of time together every day, Zhou Wanwan cherishes it every minute, and sits at the door every day and waits for them. Zhou Yang and Zhou Chen are also captains, and as soon as they say that they will run home after work, they are afraid that their sister will be in a hurry.

Because Shen Yufen is pregnant, the captain has some care, and today she was arranged to replenish millet seedlings in Dongshan, which is close to home, and came back a little earlier than others, and smiled when she saw Zhou Wanwan sitting obediently at the door.

Her morning sickness is not so bad, and she has some spirits, and she smiles every time she sees Zhou Wanwan these days. It seems that she just found out that there is such a well-behaved and beautiful little doll at home, and occasionally brings back a few wildflowers for Zhou Wanwan, or touches her little curly hair to tease her.

Zhou Wanwan is as well-behaved and polite as ever, pregnant women are always overflowing with motherhood, and she is a good person if she smiles at you? When the stakes are at stake, who knows who is who?

However, kindness is always more comfortable than hostility, and Zhou Wanwan felt that if the Zhou family was like Shen Yufen, it would be good to treat their brothers and sisters even if they were superficially kind, so that she would be content.

It's a pity that Zhou Wanwan is still naïve, how can the Zhou family have the slightest kindness to their brothers and sisters, her illusion was soon completely shattered by the arrival of the township armed forces minister.

The head of the township armed forces is called Sun Changhe, who was a veteran of the Northeast Bandit Suppression Force at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China before he retired. He came to Zhou's house to deliver things, to be precise, it was Shen Guodong who asked him to send things to Zhou Wanwan.

Sun Changhe took out a green military shoulder bag, which contained two big red apples, about half a catty of white rabbit toffee and half a bag of milk powder, and even a model of a cannon glued with bullet shells. The Zhou family's eyes straightened when they saw these things, and any of these things were extremely scarce materials, not to mention that rural families like them were urban people who ate food supplies and received wages every month, and it was very good to see one or two of them in a year.

Sun Changhe didn't look at the faces of the Zhou family, and directly put the things in Zhou Wanwan's arms and let her hold them, before conveying Shen Guodong's original words, "...... It's all for the girl, whoever dares to move, I'll pinch his out! ”

Then he didn't care if Zhou Wanwan understood it or not, and explained to her on behalf of Shen Guodong that it was not that he missed the appointment, but that Chief of Staff Shen had physical problems again, and he urgently went back to the provincial hospital for treatment, and he also went back, and the time was too late, or he would have come by himself.

Then Sun Changhe told the Zhou family, who were tremblingly entertaining him, about the ins and outs of this matter. He went to the county armed forces department for a meeting, and Minister Shen of the county armed forces department asked him to hand them over on his behalf, and Minister Shen was the eldest son of Chief of Staff Shen and Shen Guodong's eldest uncle.

Sun Changhe left in a hurry after explaining, Zhou Wanwan sat in Zhou Yang's arms, holding this satchel like holding an explosives bag, it was really a dilemma. These things are a question of whether to give them to Mrs. Zhou or not.

gave it to her, she would not be grateful, she would only take it for granted, which made Zhou Wanwan feel very uncomfortable; If they don't give it, their brother and sister will become a thorn in the side of Mrs. Zhou, the public enemy of the Zhou family, dare to eat alone so blatantly, then they will definitely not have a good time in the future.
